Although we have some beautiful road journeys here in the UK, our roads aren’t very long. You can’t really travel very far along the same road, apart from a motorway (not generally that beautiful) without dropping into the sea.

When I travelled up the west coast of America in 2010, one of the things I loved about the trip were the long roads. It was great to sit back, relax, put my earphones in and enjoy the open road. Don’t worry – I wasn’t the one driving.
